Questionable registrations
Despite concerns over voter registration fraud in the state, Miller has said that no voters will be purged from the rolls. Instead, poll workers have been trained to verify signatures and identity from anyone with a questionable registration.
That category includes anyone who registered for the first time this year, by mail or through a third party, and did not include identification. This works out to around 30,000 voters who will have their registrations scrutinized at the polls.[1]
Election command center
Miller has promised that any allegations of voting fraud will receive a quick response the election command center. The center will be run from the Secretary of State's office, with liaisons operating in every county throughout the state.[2]
